It’s that time of year! The holiday season is officially in full swing. The holiday season is one of the most difficult times of the year for our guests and the need in our community becomes even more apparent. Read on for ways you can help support our hunger-relief and supportive services programs (most at no additional cost to you)!
Adopt-A-Family For Christmas!
Every holiday season, we partner up with organizations, churches, and families to provide gifts and toys to our pantry program families. You or your group can adopt any number of families and will receive a “holiday wishlist” for that family that includes details on each member. This wishlist includes things like toys, clothing, or household items. You can help give a family a magical holiday. Is there a better way to spread holiday cheer? We think not!
Questions or ready to adopt a family? Reach out to Ismael at ismael@sfcla.org or 213.747.5347 x. 108
